This guy's like someone who got fired but keeps coming back to the job to tell you that you're not doing it right:

Former vice president Dick Cheney continued his one-man assault on President Obama, issuing a broad condemnation of the White House — from its handling of the CIA interrogation memos to the handshake with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez — during an interview with Fox News's Sean Hannity last night.

Cheney, never one to shy away from a political fistfight, called it "a little bit disturbing" that the Obama administration had released some of the CIA memos "but they didn't put out the memos that showed the success of the effort." ... On Obama's handshake with Chavez, Cheney said he "didn't think much of it" but added, more broadly, that he was "concerned with the way that we've been represented overseas."
Keep talking, dipshit. Obama's got an approval rating 50 points higher than you had in the Good Days, so I'm sure you're really endearing the Republican opposition to the American people by insisting on being their most public critic of the popular new president.
